Question

Study the following information carefully to answer these questions:
Seven friends A, B, C, D, E, F and G perform in stage shows on a different day from Monday to Sunday, not necessarily in the same order. Each one performs a different item, viz. Music, Dance, Mimicry, Play, Debate, Speech and Monologue, not necessarily in the same order.
B performs 'Play' on Thursday and E performs 'Music' on Sunday. G performs 'Mimicry' but not on Tuesday or Saturday. C's performance is on the next day of G's performance. D performs on Monday but not 'Dance' or 'Debate'. A performs 'Monologue' which is on the next day of 'Speech', 'Dance' is not performed on Saturday.

C

C.

F

D.

B

Correct option is C

Clues:

  1. B performs 'Play' on Thursday.
  2. E performs 'Music' on Sunday.
  3. G performs 'Mimicry' but not on Tuesday or Saturday.
  4. C's performance is on the next day of G's performance.
  5. D performs on Monday but not 'Dance' or 'Debate'.
  6. A performs 'Monologue', which is on the next day of 'Speech'.
  7. 'Dance' is not performed on Saturday.

Step 1: Place the fixed details

  • From Clue 1:B = Thursday, Item = Play.
  • From Clue 2:E = Sunday, Item = Music.
  • From Clue 5:D = Monday, Item ≠ Dance/Debate.
    So, D can perform 'Speech', 'Monologue', or 'Mimicry'.

Step 2: Assign G's performance

  • From Clue 3: G = Mimicry but not on Tuesday or Saturday.

  • From Clue 4: C performs the day after G.
    If G performs on Wednesday, C will perform on Thursday (but Thursday is occupied by B).
    Therefore, G must perform onFriday.

  • G = Friday, Item = Mimicry.

Step 3: Assign C's performance

  • From Clue 4: C performs the day after G.
    If G = Friday, then C = Saturday.
    C = Saturday, Item = Dance(as per Clue 7: Dance is not performed on Saturday).

Step 4: Assign A's performance

  • From Clue 6: A performs 'Monologue', which is the day after 'Speech'.
    If D = Monday and performs 'Speech', then A = Tuesday.
    A = Tuesday, Item = Monologue.

Step 5: Assign D's item

  • D performs on Monday (Clue 5) and cannot perform Dance, Debate, or Monologue.
    The only remaining option for D is 'Speech'.
    D = Monday, Item = Speech.

Step 6: Assign the remaining day and item

  • The only person left is F.
  • The only day left is Wednesday.
  • The only item left is 'Debate'.
    F = Wednesday, Item = Debate.
